I love myself more than I could ever hate you I know that is just the thing that irritates you I know that you'd rather we just celebrate you Bet your bottom dollar I ain't thinking 'bout you. I love myself more than I could ever hate you I love myself more than I could ever hate you

Dancing in your room Drunken, to our friends band. I'm about to play a set across the street. I hallucinate a smell and I'm back. I'm putting on your clothes now about to head to class. I'm late I'm high. class was good. I thought about you the whole time, said something smart. I hallucinate a smell and I'm back. undressed and missing class. just an idea. someone else lives in that room now we can't go back. we can't go back nothing is different we can't go back nothing is similar this is okay this is just fine I'm alright now this is okay I'm forgetting the smell forgetting the smell who's in your room tonight? what are you two dancing to? how long will they remember the smells that will return them to this moment right now after it shatters and cracks like it always has.

I’m shut in But not for the first time Just trying to do what’s right this time The whole world on pause But is she waiting? And will she wait for me too? Still shut in But not for the first time We’re all trying forecast the last time If I’m still here Will you still feel it? If I keep the warmth at arms’ length

oh father, what about the rest of my life after you die? as lonely as you claim i will never survive, without you. by my side, it’s haunting spirits in this house from my childhood in one dream i have speaking stuttered spanish “quiero decir” sit silently. in my rockstar makeup, singing karaoke hear mother scream our shared name in the middle of the night love me tenderly as i die in your arms and hold me as i cum if i’m the son you have dreamt of then hold me as i cum or is too hard to admit, i’m your other daughter’s death? uncircumcise me. i am your other daughter’s death uncircumcise me (you’re not talked about well-dressed and with flowers) holding my breath, from down the hallway (you’re not talked about, karaoke singer) hearing you scream you will leave this world (you’re not talked about, in closet weather casket) in the fashion whence you came, (you’re not talked about, because it’s not talked about) alone, and to die alone.

love you must see the grace that keeps you grounded love you must trust you will not burn it down with harmony and temperance and joy so lush

When I come home Lay my head down I still hear ringing I think of nothing Don’t try to think for me The process fails at full intensity You’ve ground down the bitterness I’ve gotta get myself used to it A slightest glimpse into me Shows nothing’s ever easy My brain has stayed so distant I don’t know how you missed it But nothing’s the same today I know You don’t Write off This loss
8.
I’m over it and under it and everything else I can be I'm confident and everything else that you wanted It doesn’t matter what I do it'll never be enough for you I'm not comfortable You sing a song of a siren But you're obsessed with flying Not following New beginning Hypnotizing on your island Rocky coasts Green meadows A sweet sadness that I will always know I’m over it and under it and everything else I can be Just pull me right back in again just like you wanted It’s fair enough I’m backing up You seem way too good at this stuff I'm not comfortable Scrubbing my mirror until it’s clean It won't matter you won’t stay with me I’m over it and under it and everything else I can be Reading your recent poetry It’s 11:17 I’m over it and under it and everything else I can be
9.
Your eyes see past my walls But I want you to look at me And I know the names of many things But I can't tell what you are At least not to me I think I could love you If I tried I don't think he loves you The way you had in mind Brush your hair back, show your face Even if it saddens me I remember the blowing fallen leaves I heard your name in each distant sound I recall I think I could love you If I tried And when you forget me I'll be in my mind
10.
under bloomed horizon, we grind our heels into embers pollinated across gravel trails. my jaw unclenches into prayer and exhales for myself not to go there. my hands holding me inside, our footsteps fade into a sigh. we ask in tongues and through teeth to not want anything.

in this house, the rooms are always shifting walls disappear and reform groaning like muscle tearing from bone there's a single window, in a tiny room this is where i live each day i visit the box below the chair inside it is something warm i hold it close i do not know what makes the light that bathes the window such a soft gold outside is the sea and inside is something too fragile to bear so i wait for something to ask me: "if my body fell & shattered would you put me back together?" oh yes, i can only say yes "if i tore off my body would you sew it back up for me?" oh yes, i can only say yes "if i lost myself to nothingness would you really come look for me?" oh yes, i can only say yes oh yes, oh yes, for you; oh yes, oh yes, oh yes in this house, the bones are always broken flesh is twisted and so torn all i am left with is something warm all i am left with is a question

Was it all in, was it all in your head? Was it all in your head? Was it just something that you dread? x2 Trade your harness for a serpent Wear it like a medal Spend your money on your burdens Burry them in petals In the heat of any moment you're gonna lose wherever you give in I hate the fantastical version of me that you've imagined melt me in your pot of magic or else I will not have it In the heat of any moment... Did you put it off again like you did last time? Another rancid day another rancid life Was it all in, was it (give it the okay) All in your head? Was it (It wont go away) all in your head? Was it just something that you dread? x2 Give it the okay, it won't go away, just give it the ok Did you put it off again like you did last time? Another rancid day another rancid life

Wants to creep in the night We can find a way to Lover, now a scar And mama told me boys will break your heart But I’m dumb til the end I know And I don’t usually do this But I don’t mind if you won’t tell And I don’t usually want this But I just need your affection I think about us in my bedroom I think of all the things we could do could do I think about us in my bedroom They say we shouldn’t but I want to, I want to.

ヘビーなハート蛇 (HEAVY-HEARTED HEBI): [Chorus] 蛇、蛇、ヘビーな ハートを持つ どうすれば どうすればいい どうすればいいかな [First verse] 悲しい、悲しい蛇、 昔々力がなかった 弱かった。 すごく弱かった。 でも蛇は頭がよかった 天子は強かったんだ 絶対神になるんだ [Second verse] 「なるほど、なるほど」 と言っていた、言っていた (マジ?マジ分かった?) 「死んだ人を食った。 夢は神になること。 分からないでしょう。」 [Third verse] 「分かりたい、分かりたい」 と言っていた、言っていた。 「大変ですね、すみません」 千年が経っても、 まだ分からない、キミ [TRANSLATION] Snake, snake, heavy- -heart, you hold What should What should I What should I do? Sad, sad snake A long time ago, You didn't have power You were weak So, so weak But you were clever "Heavenly beings are strong." "I will become God." "I understand, I understand," So you say, so you say (Really? Do you really understand?) "I eat the dead. My dream is to become a god. You don't understand." "I want to understand, I want to understand," So you say, so you say, "How difficult, my apologies, Even if 1000 years passed, you still wouldn't understand.”

I bleed like stained glass Broken, reverent I taste like dead skin And burning beaches You will lick Where my blood spills from You will catch All my cum on your tongue Lick sounds from My purpose now Cut yourself Sacrifice All I am in you I do not care How long it takes To rearrange my face I do not care How fucking long it takes To rearrange my fate I do not care How long it takes To rearrange my face I do not care How fucking long it takes To rearrange my fate I do not care How long it takes To rearrange my face I do not care How fucking long it takes To rearrange my fate

I glance in the mirror and hate what I see The cord on the floor is the only thing That would looks good on me Around my neck hanging from the ceiling You think with your dick and that’s all there is to you They say every dog has its day But I think every dog is the same In a society I’m exhausted looking good for you Being a girl just to look good for you We won’t tell all that we hate about ourselves and our bodies And I will never admit that I never loved you just because I never loved myself The only beautiful thing that I had about me was the blood running down [Wandering eyes killed me inside I’ll never show I’ll never tell Wandering eyes killed me inside I wish I was never born a girl (x3)
